Fertile eggs?

[Cool_Catrules456]

I have no idea. I’m not good with genetics

Ah, just combined the parents coloring (mothers genes tend to be stronger) mother is a SLW, and father is the silver EE with splash red.

The rooster is up front. And the mother right behind him. (Shes my lightest brown layer)

Comb has a 50/50 chance to be either but probably the wallnut comb and not the pea comb. But please make a wild guess, judged by the parents colors.

Ok ummm how about something that looks like a SLW with red leakage and a beard with green legs that lays blue eggs

It would probably be closer to a light olive egg color but maybe. I doupt the red leakage will be there, but we never know! Green legs may be there.

I just checked for chirps again. (cause I was worried.) and I head some. I feel better now. And more willing to leave the egg alone, than worrying about everything. We should have a chick by tomorrow. So see you then unless something changes.

I would like everyone to meat patches. The name just fits.

Things that the father gave: green legs, beard and muffs, all the cream coloring. Him as a chick to compare how much they look alike.

what the mother gave:all the black and white color,and pink bottoms of the feet. The red did come through. Can’t wait to see how the pattern grows.

Wyandottes have rose combs.
The chick might have a walnut comb, if it inherited rose from the Wyandotte and pea from the father.

I typically can't tell rose combs apart from walnut combs when the chicks are young, but it will probably become clear at some later point, as the chick grows.

Oh, I heard someone say wyandottes have wallnut combs. I guess they where wrong. I can’t really tell the comb right now, all I know it’s not a pea comb.

Nope, they where right. Wallnut is the flat comb, thats what the mother had.

They were wrong.

The Wyandotte breed is always supposed to have a rose comb, never a Walnut comb.
Gentically, it is impossible to breed two rose comb chickens and get a walnut comb, so walnut combs will never show up in purebred Wyandottes.

The Silver Laced Wyandotte hen in your photo has a rose comb.

Rose combs can be flat (like on many Wyandottes), or they can stick up and be bigger (Hamburgs have bigger ones, and Red Caps have extremely big ones.)

Yes, Walnut combs can also be flat. Rose vs. walnut usually looks a bit different, and I am quite confident your Wyandotte hens (the silver laced and the gold laced in that photo) have rose combs. I'm not sure yet about the chick.
